Japanese people mess up with L and R western letters not only when talking, but also when writing. "R" usually wins, they easily forget about the L.

03.Food.replica * Many restaurants (and they are many) expose plastic reproductions of their dishes, probably to attract tourists lost in translation. I must say that it works. * 1596 x 1090 * (551KB)

04.Card.arcade * One of the novelties I didn't know about in the arcades, are these videogames in which you play with cards. The game recognize the cards and their positions over a table put in front of the player. The player also uses buttons and joysticks as usual. I saw a medieval strategy game (the one in the photo), a football game, a Gundam RTS game and possibly others using this system. Quite an interesting idea to differentiate arcade games from anything on pc/home console. * 1752 x 1168 * (499KB)
